: Neat idea, Ken. I like that - you've just solved my fear factor of using
: 3/16" strips on the King I'm building in my mind.

My strips were around 7/32" to begin with, and there was one spot that got sanded a little bit thinner in the fairing process than surrounding areas. I was nervous about installing the magnets, but it worked out. It was only after I was done that I had my "brainstorm" So its in the "next time" file. I may go down to 3/16" next time as well.

Cheers;
Ken
